is my system..

stock clocks = 8962 marks

Stock clocks with 177.xx drivers (Video card still OC'd) = 12898

2880 = 13988

3200 = 14698

Thought i should see more gains from 320 more MHZ...


How ever, last night 2.88 and 3.2 both became unstable

i am running the ram at 1152 5 5 5 15... maybe i should try 5 5 5 18 ... or 5 5 5 12? <some one told me that the last number should be the previous 2 added +2

This set up seemed stable for a few days, IDK what changes... I was using the Nvidia utlity to do my changes and then i made the changes in the bios... thats when the crashing started...
I noticed that it set my GTLVREF 1 to .07 for 2.88 and .09 for 3.2
I had all voltages on auto...

bios said CPU voltage was 1.27 but utility was reporting 1.313... i need to check CPUz to see what it actually is...

This ram really cooks at 1152 but maybe i can get better performance by dropping the clock and improving timings? I'm not sure if this ram can run tighter timings at lower speeds... i tried 4 4 4 12 @ 930 and it wouldn't post.

Thanks in advance
